End Violence Against Women

Created November 28, 2016

Globally, a staggering 1 in every 3 women has experienced physical or sexual violence in their lifetime. Yet violence is not inevitable. It can be prevented. However, resources for initiatives to prevent and end violence against women and girls are severely lacking. We are trying to change this.
